personal weapon(s) Explanation: IMO -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 mins (2016-02-01 12:21:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- A personal weapon or ordnance weapon is a weapon that is issued to an individual member of a military or paramilitary unit, e.g. to individual soldiers. These weapons in pre-modern contexts tended to be melee weapons (i.e. blade weapons, polearms, bayonet or the officer's sword.) In modern contexts, this includes personal defense weapons and side arm firearms. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_weapon |
